Readers
of this list will note that the Department of Energy, without so much
as a Federal Register notice, has in a single quote to the New York
Times, moved the majestic Idaho National Laboratory from its historical
roots on the Idaho Arco Desert some 250 miles north of Salt Lake City to
the foothills of Denver, Colorado.
Idaho
Falls Mayor Tommy Tumlin told the the Associated Press in Boise, "we
didn't know it was missing until the buses taking workers to the site
came back into town fully loaded."
DOE Field office spokesman Tim Thompson referred media inquiries to DOE's public affiars office in Washington, DC.
"The
department has begun a review of how it packages plutonium wastes at
Los Alamos and its laboratories at Idaho Springs, Colo., and Oak Ridge,
Tenn., said Frank Marcinowski, the deputy assistant secretary for waste
management. "
